Way back when, that is pre-delivery, I ran a poll on which winter wheels to get and the winning style was Ispiri’s FFR6 in Matt carbon bronze, which was an excellent choice, thank you guys. Unfortunately they were on back order with no expected production date and so I decided on the next best...

Yay

There’s a thing or two to learn about our Zed’s and I found two new things today about my zed today and I thought I’d share them with you lot. Then I thought, perhaps it would be great if we all add something that we know or have found out about our cars and list them here for new owners :D...

Well, after almost six months of waiting, today was the day, three trains and three hours later, I finally made it to BMW Boston, then had to wait while Emily finished taking another order, grrrr hurry up I want my new car I said whilst stamping my feet :D Ninety seven miles later and another...

I’ve decided to sell my 2008 Omega Seamaster 300M Mid-Size (36.25 mm) fitted with the Co-Axial calibre 2500 automatic movement. it features a blue, wave-patterned dial with a date window at the 3 o’clock position. The distinctive dial is visible through a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a...

You two are having a laugh :poke: In all seriousness though, you can’t as the TPMS sensors need assigning first :P

Obs-Com, BMW recommended size of tyre for the M40i is a square 255/40 R18, so alloys would be 9J x 18, PCD is 5 x 112, offset is ET 32 and centrebore is 66.6 As I already had four x Continental AllSeasonContacts at 255/35 R19’s I opted to stay with those just get new alloys, they are 9J x 9, 5...

Having done the research the recommended winter wheel sizes for the G29 are 255/40 R18 all round fitted with Continental Winter Contact, however as others have suggested unless you have to deal with a lot of snow then I would suggest the new Michelin cross climate 2, which are basically winning...

V8 power only at the moment in SL55 & SL63, it’s a 2+2 configuration, 4matic and a fabric hood, later models will include a six cylinder hybrid and a range topping 830 BHP hybrid

Thanks guys, it’s been a long roller coaster ride waiting for my SFR M40i. Then to top it all the new SL was launched yesterday :drool:

But these are, Motec Superlight MCR2’s

I’ve already got a set of Continental AllSeasonContacts in 255/35 R19’s on Veemann V-FS36, a multi-spoke design in gloss graphite which went rather well with the SL, however probably not so much with the new M40i. So the poll, which one should I replace them with, either Ispiri FFR6 in carbon...

It’s a lovely place, will certainly go back, last weekend we were walking up in the Yorkshire Worlds at the top of a hill looking down over Millington below us, the height is around 180 m above sea level, our villa was at 350 m and the highest peak was 1820 m which is above low level clouds and...

Tyrereview’s all season tyre test, good informative watching with the new Michelin cross climate 2 and just in time for winter! A3WssIxusLU

I am tempted with the Boxster S as it is more reasonably priced, but I do believe that the M40i is the better daily driver, it just lacks that extra bit of kudos as a drivers car, but more than enough for me. The technology in the zed is also much superior and the inside of the Boxster is...

Also living in Yorkshire, I would thoroughly recommend a set of winter alloys with a square set up of 255/35 R19 all season tyres from Continental :thumbsup: I’ve been eyeing these :D

:thumbsup: San Francisco Red M40i with cognac, tech, comfort and driving packs, ordered Monday 14th June, delivery supposed to be third week in September but not holding my breath. Me too very excited indeed :D Purchased from BMW Boston in Lincolnshire, so will have a nice drive back :driving:

Indeed you are, thanks again for your help :thumbsup: It also means that I can use my current winter wheels, thoughts? will they go?
